Wales star Joe Ledley was allegedly attacked in Glasgow after his man-of-the-match performance for Celtic on Saturday.

Reports claim the attack happened close to the Sugar Cube night club at 3am Sunday, while Cardiff born Ledley was out in the city centre with his dad and a group of friends.

Earlier in the day, Ledley, 24, had scored and been given man of the match as the Hoops beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle at Celtic Park.

A witness said the incident began when a man tapped Ledley on the shoulder - then head-butted him.

It is claimed the player was kicked in the face after falling to the ground, before police stepped in.

Following the incident Ledley sent a Tweet which said: "Just had a good fight with Rangers," but it was later deleted from the former Cardiff City midfielder’s account after fans bombarded him with questions about the incident.
